Description

There was a revision in the script, originally this hisi gnome was the king of gnomes, now his rank and station in his life has changed. I need a new name, not just a random like Bob either haha! Keep the mythology in mind.

Thanks guys/gals

Vorna

Vorna was in Karelian mythology a giant with iron shirt and huge bow. He caused a lot of problems for Finns until finally killed.

Well, here's a few:

-Rahko (in Finnish mythology a strange being attached to waning of the moon)

-Kratti (originally from Swedish, "skratt" = "laugher"), a demonic screaming figure guarding treasures hidden in the ground, but, on the other hand, and according to Mikael Agricola, "Kratti" was an elf worshipped by the ancient tribes in the area of Häme.

-Aarni. Very much like "Kratti", but a name still used today as a given name. Connected to folklore in the form of Aarnihauta (hauta = a tomb) a place where riches are burried, and the location is marked by Aarnivalkea, literally Aarni White, meaning "Ghost light" or will-o'-the-wisp.

Cool. Kratti the gnome sounds good to me. And Kratti pronounced in a very Finnish way with the very hard Rs.

Kratti it is! Thanks!

Very nice ones. My vote goes to Kratti. A good gnome needs to have a hard "R" or two in it's name!
